Is that the restaurant in front of Pattaya courthouse?

^No, you're thinking of La Baguette.
Some English comfort food...

A Charlie Bigham lasagne:)
Try the Morrisons 99p microwave Lasagne, you can eat it through a straw.
Had a crack at home made Shakshuka this morning loosely following the recipe and instructions Dirk posted in this thread recently.

Onion, bell pepper, a lot of garlic, + spices being added and cooked down.

Tinned toms added, I had fresh toms in the fridge but the recipe calls for tinned and they worked perfectly.

Eggs added and lid on to trap the steam which cooks their tops, it's all a waiting game at this point which is exactly my type of cooking.

Quick peek to see how we're looking. Next time (and there will be a next time) I'll crack the eggs into 4 different bowls so I can add them quickly instead of making the rookie error of cracking and adding them one at a time over however long it took, which meant uneven cooking times as you can see here :(

Ready.

Terrible plating and presentation as always, but on top of a thick slice of toast drizzled with EVOO it was absolutely delicious and Mrs Worx tucked in for half too really enjoying it :)
I didn't have plain paprika at home and only had smoked paprika which turned out to be a master-stroke, really added depth to the flavour. I'm also thinking bacon in the pan would take this to a whole different level, but the Arabs who invented it may disagree :)

gren not allowed but that looks great
much better than the one i had last weekend as the eggs got a bit rubbery
had one in chiang mai last week at some hippie place called the bird nest cafe which was fantastic
Masuk Facebook

Long may work from home continue
Looks awesome Headworx, I haven’t gotten around to it yet. You’ve set the bar high tho, so some finely chopped bacon seems in order to stay in the game.
Incidentally, I was in Makro yesterday and had a scan at the tomatoes. Of about 10,000 on offer, every single one of them looked flawless. Some of you guys are getting the shitty end of the stick.

Getting into these bagels:)
Looking good reg. I would part with serious baht for that badboy . For brekkie
You remind me a bit of a bloke I met in pattaya one time:chitown:
^ Did he used to nob bagels?:)
youse supposed to eat bagels, not nob them ya bender!
Any bagel in a storm.
Every bagel's a goal.
Yeah doesn't work.
Ahhh, I knew this big fukkin Aussie bloke who did that too:)
Leos for poofs
Leo never did taste like a 5%er like Chang or Singha.
A bit like Carling compared to Stella.
No wonder certain cretinous ingrish teachers like it
^ standing in for the Kraut?
I preferred the old high strength Chang, always guaranteed a good turn out in the morning.
I always feel cheated and ripped off when consuming a bagel.
FFS the middle is missing!
Insider
A stroke of shrewd genius by the inventor.
Shakshuka revisited with bacon added this time, and a bit heavier on the chili flakes.

^ Seen that a few times, and tempted to give it a try. My only concern is it would be a bit "sour" from the tomatoes...is it?
^No, not sour at all.
Hard to describe tastes with words of course but the dominant flavours are smokiness from the bacon and paprika, garlic, chili, and coriander, with the slightly runny egg yolk cutting though everything.
^ May well give it a try. Thanks.
^Yeah give it a shot and adjust the seasonings while you're cooking it to taste. It's an easy dish to make that's very tasty.
Looks like you’ve nailed it mate. I was eyeing up some canned tomato matter that appeared in the cupboard with this in mind, came back from the school run and she’d got a pot of chili con carne on the go.
Pizza leftovers it is then.

Bare bones basics, yum.

^Nope, pretty much a zero carb brekkie today with a coffee and glass of coconut water on the side.
